What happens when you take four kids halfway around the world to a country where you don't speak the language, can't find your usual foods, and nothing goes quite according to plan? You get one unforgettable family adventure!
In this episode of Strong Like a Mother, I'm taking you along on our family's trip to Seoul, South Korea. From navigating public transportation and figuring out unfamiliar bathrooms to experiencing Korean culture, historical landmarks, and some incredible attractions, I'm sharing the highlights, hilarious moments, and unexpected challenges of traveling internationally with kids.
I'll also share what surprised me most about Korean food, daily life, and how much walking we actually did. Let's just say my expectations of stocking our Airbnb with healthy groceries went out the window pretty quickly!
Was the trip exhausting? Absolutely. Would I do it again? You'll have to listen to find out why, despite the meltdowns, jet lag, and a few genuinely stressful moments, this adventure was worth it.
Key Takeaways
- Traveling internationally with kids isn't for the faint of heart. Flexibility, patience, and a sense of humor go a long way.
- Expectations rarely match reality. Especially when it comes to food, accommodations, and navigating an unfamiliar country.
- Some of the best experiences are unexpected. From cultural discoveries to memorable interactions with locals.
- Adventure doesn't have to be perfect to be worthwhile. Even the hardest moments can become part of an incredible family memory.
